Dosage and Storage Tips
Adults
Start with one adult scoop (0.8 gram, 224 billion CFU’s) first thing in the morning on an empty stomach, approximately 30 minutes before eating. Dissolve the powder in dechlorinated water and drink it. Stay at this dosage for about 3–5 days.
If you are not getting the expected results, the original page recommends increasing gradually up to a maximum of four adult scoops per day. You may also visit our Dosage Suggestions page for more information.
Children
Start with one baby scoop (0.1 gram, 25 billion CFU’s) first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Dissolve the powder in water and stay at this dosage for about 3–5 days before increasing gradually.
Storage
Our probiotic supplements are temperature stable for 2–3 weeks without refrigeration. We have completed 2-year temperature stability testing. It is best, however, to keep probiotics refrigerated for optimum potency.

Testimonials
I was very sick with gut Candida, an ulcer caused by H. pylori, and a weakened immune system. After starting the 11-Strain Custom Probiotics product, I began feeling drastically better within a few days.
After using the 11-Strain probiotic for almost three years, I increased the dosage and felt that my body responded positively.
I had years of chronic intestinal problems and repeated courses of antibiotics. After consistently using the 11-Strain probiotic, my bowel movements became regular and the bloating improved.
I ordered the 11-Strain powder for myself and also began giving it to my son. Within about a month, we were encouraged by the changes we observed.
